Unlike the original animated film, Mulan's love interest will no longer be Captain Li Shang, but a new character named Chen Honghui, a fellow army soldier. Honghui isn't the only new character either.

There is also Commander Tung, played by Donnie Yen, who will serve as a mentor to Mulan, as well as a con-artist duo played by Chum Ehelepola and Utkarsh Ambudkar, respectively. Mulan was even given a sister, set to be played by Xana Tang.

However, the biggest change in the live-action remake is the addition of a new villain, a powerful witch which will be played by actress Gong Li.

While the film will still keep the original story structure of Mulan joining the army to spare her father, many are worried that the addition of these new characters is going to change some of the most beloved parts of the animated movie.

In past live-action Disney remakes, the storyline has mostly stayed the same with little to no addition of new characters.

Originally the remake of "Mulan" was being praised for actually hiring Asian actors to play Asian characters — unlike films like "Ghost in the Shell" and "Avatar: The Last Airbender." However, the lack of musical numbers as well as the decision to cut major characters are leaving some questioning if the movie should even be titled "Mulan."

"Mulan" will begin filming in August and is set to be released in 2020.
